The Green Bean is as warm and inviting as the coffee they sell. This independent coffee house also has a great selection of organic coffee, espresso, pastries from local bakeries, as well as beer and wine. Also, no local coffee house could be complete without also serving as a great venue for the local music artists to showcase their craft, and the Green Bean is definitely not only a place for local music, but for all arts.

Since opening in 1993, the Tate Street Coffee House has helped locals begin their mornings with an expertly brewed cup of coffee. In additional to their coffees, which are all organic and fair trade, Tate Street Coffee House also offers lattes, espresso, ciders and even hot chocolate. The shop also hosts monthly art shows, as well as live jazz three nights a week. Lunch is also served, with the menu featuring sandwiches to go along with beers and wine.

Coffeeology's name is quite fitting when you consider the shop is located right nearby the University of North Carolina - Greensboro. Although the shop is crowded at times, be assured that that just means there is good coffee to be had here. If you have a sweet tooth, don't forget to try their gelato, especially during the warm summer months. Their Wi-Fi is available to use with a purchase.
